Vista - IPConfig /All Window Closes immediately

When I type Ipconfig /all in the Run option, the window flashed for a second
then closes. I need to save the data to research a wireless problem. How do I
get the window to stay open?

Thanks

open a command window first
Winkey-R
cmd
ipconfig /all

Open a command prompt (Run | cmd) and type IPCONFIG /ALL. When you do it in
the Run box, when the command finishes, it defaults to closing the window.
The CMD box doesn't close until you tell it to.

Hope this helps.

You can do it all with one Run command: cmd /k ipconfig /all
The /k parameter tells cmd to leave the window open.
